Job Description

Sasaki is a 300+ international planning and design firm headquartered in Boston, MA, with locations in Denver, New York, Los Angeles and Shanghai, China. We have a dynamic creative culture with a reputation and body of work that spans over sixty-five years.

Sasaki is looking for innovative, self-driven, and creative planners with 4-7 years of relevant experience to join our multidisciplinary firm in Boston. We would love to welcome a new team member who is eager to jump into a wide range of planning projects, equipped with strong analysis, research, and storytelling skills - verbal, graphic, and written.

What you will bring :

  • A strong grasp of foundational planning concepts and the ability to independently complete tasks related to a range of complex planning topics and contexts.
  • Demonstrated ability to work on multiple projects and tasks simultaneously.
  • Organizational and management skills, with attention to detail and ability to coordinate tasks on small projects or internal teams
  • Curiosity and enthusiasm for working across a variety of client and project types, with experience in one of our core markets (civic sector, campus, or master planning) or a technical expertise (e.g., sustainability, transportation, etc.)
  • Knowledge of and comfort with Adobe Suite workflow (INDD, AI) and Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint)
  • Strong written and verbal communication (planning reports, memoranda, and day-to-day communication)
  • Strong quantitative and qualitative analysis skills and the ability to structure and interpret data-informed physical planning processes
  • Cultural competency in engaging with planning concepts in a variety of contexts

What you will do :

  • Lead research and analysis
  • Oversee junior planners
  • Play a substantial role in coordinating our internal interdisciplinary project teams.
  • Develop more client-facing and project management skills as you advance in this position.
  • Develop experience with marketing and business development and contribute to innovation in your discipline.
  • Present clear graphic communication and storytelling, displaying understanding of cultural sensitivities and craft narratives for complex stakeholder and client groups.
  • Lay out presentations, reports, and leading the creation of graphic content
  • Experience & Education :

  • Master’s degree in planning or a related field or a bachelor’s degree in planning or related field with a preference for at least four years of relevant experience (We welcome applicants who may have had a non-typical path into planning - we’d love to hear about it in your cover letter.)
  • Planners at Sasaki share a common set of core competencies, but also have a range of complementary strengths and interests. The successful candidates will possess some or most of these attributes :

  • Experience contributing to community engagement processes and public speaking
  • Familiarity with directing spatial analysis workflow and software (ArcGIS, QGIS)
  • Familiarity with project implementation processes (e.g., zoning code, design review, etc.)
  • Proficiency with languages spoken in frequent project locations (Spanish and Chinese)
  • Degree in architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, or another design field
  • Experience working as a part of an interdisciplinary design team in an office setting
  • Experience with emerging topics in planning and design
  • Exposure to scope development, budget management, and sub consultant management for planning projects. Familiarity with project pursuits (proposal development, strategy, interviews, etc.)
  • Ability to coordinate multiple junior staff members and support project leadership
  • A unique superpower that we haven’t thought to ask about, but that will make an impact on our projects and practice
  • If you possess these skills and qualities and want to know more about our special team, we would love to hear from you!
